A

Petition

for Variance was received by the Board from the

deficient in several respects.

~ect.ionor sections of those rules the Variance is sought from.

.fccondly, the Petition fails to set out the quantity, or even

types of pollutants which would be emitted were the Variance

~..:anted.Third, the Petition fails under the recent Train

~cision to state whether a grant of. this Variance wo~~effect

~H,JLevementor maintenance of National Ambient Air Quality Standards

TraIn v. NRDC, 43 U.S.L.W. 4467 (U.S., April 16, 1975)

For the reasons stated above, the Petition in this matter is

inadequate, An Amended Petition shall be filed with the Board

deficiencies. Fassure to tsmely file sucn an Amen~edPetitson
